Abstract

In [11, 13] we introduced a basis of B-splines for the exponential splines in tension considered by Schweikert already in 1966. For interpolation with these basis functions we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a unique interpolant. We consider bicubic interpolation of data on rectangular grids using this basis, and give several examples showing the usefulness of this scheme.
